chapter 15

Riley's POV

I woke up to my phone ringing loudly I carefully untangled myself from williams constructor like grip . I rolled over to look at the clock it read 5:00 AM. Who in their right mind would be call me at this time. I quickly answered it.

"Whom may I be speaking to at this ungodly hour," I said walking into the kitchen make sure I didn't wake up William .

"I'm a really patient man Riley but you're forcing my hand here,he said in a dangerously low voice . So just make my point I've sent you a little gift....perhaps will motivate you . "

"What do you mean," I stuttered.

"Open the door and you'll find out Riley," was all he said before he ended the call.

I cautiously opened the front door just enough to sticky head out. There in front of me was a small pink box with a black bow, it was about the size of a ring box. I hesitated for a moment but I eventually opened the box and what I found inside it was so shocking all I could do was let out a mortified scream. I could feel the hope dying inside of me as tears flowed down my cheeks. The guilt begins to eat away at my insides. 

This was your fault. Her blood is on your hands and there's nothing you can do to wash them clean are the the thoughts that consume me.

William's POV

I bolted out of bed as I heard Riley's piercing scream echoing through the house. I swiftly navigated my way downstairs to the darkness. I found Riley hunched over in a mess of tears clutching something in his hand. I gently wrapped my arms around him as he let out heart wrenching cries of pain. he buried his face in my shirt as he let out small gasps. his cries began to die as I rocked him back and forth. when I felt that it was safe I ask what was happened. he didn't speak for a while but after three long moments everything began to spill out. everything from the creepy calls and the meeting. But this this person has gone too far how could someone do this to a little girl is just so vile. so was so enraged when I saw what the golden locks of hair in riley's hand. I didn't know what to do with myself. I cradled riley and walked to the couch and looked into his glossy eyes.

"It's all my fault. It all my fucking fault."

"Riley, it's going to be okay."

"Are you serious? He's got my god-daughter!"

"We have to do something I can't just sit here on my ass anymore!"

"NO!"

"Why not?"

"He'll kill her." Riley started to shake again."Maybe he won't kill her if we give him what he want...maybe then he'll let her go and everything will go back to normal, it just has to." Riley said getting hysterical.

"What does he want?"

"Your company database files," he said in a small voice.

"My company's database files, for what reason!"

"I don't know ok, he just said that he wanted them that's it."

"Why don't you know? He has you god-daughter! What type of person negotiates without knowing reasons."

I could see the fury in his eye. I knew I was out of line but come on he knows I can't give him those to a complete psycho. "I'm sorry, I didn't know to ask him why he needed the fucking files. I wasn't planning to have my god-daughter kidnapped and then have a lock of her hair sent to me. Give me some slack."

"But you were considering giving him the files all this time and you didn't tell me a damn thing . I don't like being left in the dark Riley he yelled in outrage."

"He's going to kill her. I can't risk her life just for your company." "I couldn't tell you when he said that, he'd chop her into little pieces if I did. What was I supposed to do?

"I'm sorry Riley, I can't give you those files." Riley looked at me with anger in his eyes.

"Of course you can't because all you care about is yourself. You're the most selfish person on the face of the Earth. I hate you!" Riley stood up and ran towards the step. I could hear him cry. I let out a sigh of frustration. There must be something else I can do for Riley.
